- Competition: World Cup 2026 Qualification
- Date: 24th March, 2025
- Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
- Venue: Stadion Narodowy
Poland will be looking to extend their unblemished record in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup following their 1-0 win over Lithuania and will host Malta at the Stadion Narodowy on Monday evening.
Poland's opening performance of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Lithuania was not entirely convincing, but the game was still a success thanks to the outstanding Robert Lewandowski, who scored the only goal of the game.
The Maltese, on the other hand, were unable to pick up any points in their first qualifying match against Finland and lost 1-0, although they were on a par for large parts of the game and even created two big scoring chances.
Poland - Malta Betting Tips: Both Teams to Score - NO
Poland go into this match as clear favourites and will be looking for their second victory in World Cup qualifying Group G after their opening win against Lithuania on Friday evening. Malta put up a brave fight against the Finns despite losing 1-0 but failed to score at home, while their goal tally away from home is not particularly good. The Maltese have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 away internationals in all competitions and in 8 of their last 10 World Cup qualifiers they have failed to break down the opposition defence, which is even more important. We expect Poland to win and also keep a clean sheet and therefore bet on Both Teams to Score - NO.

Three reasons we expect Both Teams to Score - NO
- Malta have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 away matches in all international competitions
- Malta have failed to score in 8 of their last 10 World Cup Qualification matches when playing away from home
- Poland managed to keep a clean sheet in 1-0 win over Lithuania, which is of similar attacking talent to Malta. The Maltese are expected to struggle to create chances against Poland
